This repository contains the files required to use ArrayFire from Java.

• The latest version of ArrayFire. You can download here

  • All the pre-requisites for ArrayFire still apply.

• The latest version of JAVA SDK. Make sure there is an environmental variable JAVA_HOME pointing to the root directory of java sdk installation.

• make

  • GNU Make on Linux
  • nmake on Windows

• C++ compiler

  • gcc/g++ on Linux
  • Visual Studio 2012 for Windows.

• OSX support coming soon.

• src/: Contains the source files for the ArrayFire Java wrapper

  • java_wrapper.cpp The JNI wrapper file
  • java_wrapper.h The JNI API definitions

• com/: Contains the Java source files implementing Array and Image classes

• lib/, lib64/: The location where the JNI library is stored

• examples: contains a few examples demonstrating the usage

After you satisfy the necessary pre-requisites, edit the following parameters

• Open Makefile and change AF_PATH to the right location

• To build the JNI Wrapper for ArrayFire use

  • make cuda to build using CUDA
  • make opencl to build using OpenCL

• To build the examples do one of the following from the examples directory

  • make cuda run to use build and run examples using CUDA
  • make opencl run to use build and run examples using OpenCL

• To build the JNI Wrapper for ArrayFire

  • Verify if the following macros are correctly defined in the file Makefile.Windows.
    • Ensure that VC_ROOT points to Visual-C (VC) installation path.
    • Ensure that WINSDK_X64 points to Windows SDK X64 library path.
  • Launch Developer command prompt for Visual Studio 2012.
  • cd <Repository root>.
  • nmake /F Makefile.Windows af_java to build wrapper dll using CUDA.
  • OpenCL support coming soon.

• To build and run the examples

  • nmake /F Makefile.Windows examples to build all examples.
  • nmake /F Makefile.Windows to build and run all examples.
